Description:
shell version starts NDB only when it need by test. perl version start NDB every time which take enough time (typing --without-ndb takes time, too)

How to repeat:
./mysql-test-run.pl aliases

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. Because of this, we hope you add your comments
to the original bug instead.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.

Description:
mysql-test-run.pl does start NDB even if it's not needed by the test case(s) to
run.

How to repeat:
./mysql-test-run.pl --do-test=alias
 -> Should run the alias test without starting NDB, rpl or IM

or 
./mysql-test-run.pl alias csv
 -> Should run the alias test without starting NDB, rpl or IM

Suggested fix:
When mysql-test-run.pl starts it will "collect testcases", each tests case it
collects will be put into a list togheter with some properties describing what
features it need. The only property right now is "ndb_test". When all tests are
collected, we can just iterate that list and see which features can be disabled.
